Descripción:
Minsur has developed a tailings management plan for 2040, considering new technologies and locations within the available spaces in the Chogñocota ravine, between the B2 and B4 tailings dams. This plan determines that the best future options for the San Rafael mine are:
- Depositing thickened high-density tailings in the B2 tailings dam
- Depositing cemented paste tailings in the B4 tailings dam
- Depositing filtered tailings between the B3 and B4 tailings dams.
For this evaluation, an extensive program of geotechnical-rheological tests and tailings filterability was carried out.
As part of the project development process, Minsur has considered evaluating these 3 alternatives plus an option determined by an external consultant after they develop a Trade-Off and a Class 4 cost estimate. An IPR (Peer Review) must be met during the development of the Engineering studies.
